Qingji sat on the throne, seeing that Fan Li had already defeated the ministers of the old clan led by Shen Xi and Shuli, he secretly praised in his heart.

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Qingji immediately made a decision!

"Court argument, that's the end of it."

"The new law will remain unchanged and will be resolutely implemented!"

Qing Ji glanced at the ministers and doctors under His Majesty one by one with indifferent eyes, and then said sentence by sentence: "Widow, there is a word first, if anyone dares to obstruct the implementation of the new law, once it is verified, the widow will not be spared!" ”

Hearing this, the ministers and doctors were taken by the murderous aura revealed in Qingji's words, and they couldn't help but hang their heads, and cold sweat broke out on their backs unconsciously.

"The king is wise!"

No matter how the ministers felt, they could only agree with Qingji's decision at this moment.

Implement the new law to the end!

"Let's make an edict."

With a wave of Qingji's hand, the chamberlain Jiao Li, who was standing on the side of the Majesty's platform, hurriedly took out the edict that had been prepared long ago and read it out loud.

This is an edict to canonize the vassals!

Gongzi Zhuyong and Baoyu were respectively named Taichang and Zongzheng, one of the nine qing, and the doctor Shen Xi and was separated were respectively named Taifu and Shaofu, and the four people lived in Jiuqing.

Sun Wu was appointed as a court lieutenant, and Wu Zixu, the next doctor, was the commander of Wudu County.

The rest of the ministers and doctors from the old family were all promoted and secretly demoted, or transferred to the local area to serve as county commanders or county governors!

Now, Wu's system of three princes and nine secretaries has basically been perfected.

Ji Zai is Dazai, Sun Ping is the Great Sima, and Sun Wu is the Imperial Doctor, which is the third duke.

Candle Yong is too often, and he is in charge of the temple etiquette;

Xiong Zidan was appointed by Lang Zhongling, and he was in charge of the palace gate;

Heifu served as the captain of the guard, and was in charge of the palace guards;

Shen Xi is a servant and is in charge of the horse;

Ji Ran concurrently served as a court lieutenant and was in charge of punishment;

Bo Yan served as a pawn, and he was in charge of the righteous barbarians;

Cover up the rest of Ren Zongzheng, and hold relatives;

Fan Li is responsible for the internal history of Su and holds the grain goods;

was left as a young man, and the tax of the mountains and seas was raised in order to be co-raised.

There is no prime minister on the left, but the prime minister on the right is Ji Ran!

The remaining subordinate officials of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries will not be mentioned for the time being, but they have all been "shuffled" by Qingji.

Wu now has Wudu, Hongshang, Meili, Wu, Yanling, Nanwu, Yunyang, Zhufang, Yan, Wuyuan, Shan, Li, Yu'er, Wei, Tong, Luzi, An, Chang'an, Que, Yongpu, a total of 20 cities.

Each city has a county order, half of which is held by the old clans, and half by the talented scholars.

Qingji certainly has the heart to use his ability, but it is not good to directly tear his face and fight against the old family.

Zheng Zhi's compromise and some concessions, Qingji can still accept it!

Now Wu is full of talents, and Qingji is not worried that there is no one available under his command.

As for the old clan who is in the way, Qingji can completely take the method of boiling frogs in warm water, find a crime, and remove them one by one!

"Wait, thank you!"

Shen Xi, the departed and other ministers and doctors were all grateful, and they all paid homage to the celebration on the majestic platform.

They obstructed the implementation of the new law, thinking that they would be punished by Qingji, but they didn't expect the latter to be so magnanimous and directly let them live in Jiuqing!

At this moment, most of the feelings of reaction and dissatisfaction in the hearts of Shen Xi, Zhu Li, and others have disappeared.

The position of these three princes and nine kings is very important, but it can't all be controlled by outsiders like Fan Li and Ji Ran!

Qingji's move is undoubtedly a great way to gather the gratitude of the ministers and doctors.

As everyone knows, they have unknowingly fallen into the trap that Qingji has set up a long time ago!

As a high-ranking person, how can he not contribute to the implementation of the new law?

However, Shen Xi, being separated, covering up, Zhu Yong and others are all the mainstays of the old family, this appointment, even if they are in a vegetarian position and do not contribute to the work, they will definitely be pushed to the cusp!

When the time comes, the old clan, which has serious internal divisions, will not be concerned at all.

This is the benefit of combining rigidity and softness, which can "kill" invisibly!

Moreover, Qingji can also form a balance in the court, a balance of power between the old family and the guest secretary.

……

It was rainy.

A light rain like silver needles fell and ticked to the ground, making the road muddy.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! ”

On the spacious dirt road, several shirtless men were shouting trumpets, struggling to push the carriage stuck in the mud.

The carriage was full of goods, and the royal had dismounted, tugging at the reins in front of him, and scolding, and occasionally whipping his whip on his horse's back.

"Chirp—"

The pony let out one wail after another, its hooves sinking into the mud, and its whole body riveted with all its might, but it could not pull the wagon out.

At this time, the wheels of the car had been deeply sunk into the road that seemed to be a swamp, and it was difficult to extricate itself.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man standing on the umbrella cover cart couldn't help but say with a sad face: "Since you can't push the carriage out by brute force, unload it first!" Reduce the weight of the carriage and see if it works. ”

"No!"

The entourage who got the order hurriedly ran over to convey it.

The steward on one side said, "Master, I'm afraid this is inappropriate." As far as the villain knows, from this place to Wudu, there are at least ten miles of such dirt roads! ”

"If we encounter such a car stuck on a muddy road, we will unload the goods and rush again, and the journey will be blocked, and we will not talk about the delay of time, lest there will be thieves nearby who will rob us of our belongings as well."

Hearing this, the middle-aged businessman couldn't help frowning and sighed: "If I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have done business with Wu!" ”

"It's not going to be here now, it's not going to be stuck here, what should I do?"

The steward said: "Master, according to the villain's opinion, we should find a nearby village to settle in, and then rush to Wudu after the rain and the sky is clear and the road is feasible." ”

"That's all there is to it."

The middle-aged businessman shook his head again and sighed.

He, named Cao Wei, a native of Qi State, was originally a prince of Cao State, and he has been a merchant for generations.

From Cao Wei's great-grandfather's generation, his family ran a business of cloth, weapons, grain and rice, and was a well-known businessman in Linzi.

Cao Wei's business spread all over Qi, Lu, Wei, Wu and other countries, and after hearing that Wu changed the law and lowered tariffs to cater to the world's businessmen into Wu, Cao Wei keenly smelled a glimmer of business opportunities!

Profitable!

Cao Wei had never entered Wu before, but the caravans under his command had also entered and exited Wu several times, selling cloth and millet to the Wu people, and then purchasing sharp sword blades from the Wu people, and transferring them to Qi, Lu, Wei and other countries to sell, so as to make a lot of money!

After all, the sword-forging craftsmanship in the land of Wu Yue is very superb, and it has long been famous.

Taking advantage of the new law implemented by Wu State, Cao Wei decided to go to Wu to find out in person.

It's just that he didn't think about it, and before the caravan he led arrived in Wudu, it was blocked by the rainy road, and dozens of carriages full of goods were in a dilemma!

At this moment, looking at the muddy and potholed road in front of him because of disrepair, Cao Wei couldn't help but curse in his heart.

I swear that I will never enter the Wu business again in this life and this life!
